Apple Festival was largest yet By LISAG. CURRIE Rappahannock News Staff Writer Successful is the only way to describe the fifth annual Sperryville Business Council’s Apple Harvest Festival held this past weekend. “It was an outstanding year,” Country Manor owner Jim Swindler said of the annual event. The Columbus Day holiday brought .tourists from out-of-state while the festival drew visitors from as far south as Fredericksburg and Charlottesville and as far north as Washington, D.C. and Maryland. Cars as colorful as the trees they parked under lined U.S. 522 beyond Sperryville’s town limits as well as along U.S. 211 and in designated parking areas. Sperryville Emporium proprietor Maurice O’Bannon added that this year he “parked more cars than ever before” as visitors crowded the streets of Sperryville in search of fun, food and fanfare. Sperryville Antique Market owner Arthur Smith said this year the town met a “fine crowd with many new people” among festival goers. See APPLES, p. 11 Giles nature walk is yet another step on path to Eagle Scout award By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Skip Giles Jr. is just one Board of Review away from fulfilling the requirements for his Eagle Scout award — the highest honor bestowed by the Boy Scouts. Last week, the Eagle Review Committee of Troop 123 in Washington issued its final approval of his service project and sent the paperwork off to the Shenrapawa District office in Winchester for its review. If the district committee also approves, Skip will become the county’s newest Eagle Scout. Long after Skip’s Eagle award is bestowed, the youngsters at the Child Care and Learning Center will be enjoying, and learning, from Skip’s community service project. That project is one of the requirements each Eagle candidate must fulfill, and Skip chose to build a nature walk for the children at the Learning Center. “I knew they needed a nature trail, so I just called up and asked,” he said. The project, according CCLC director Rose Ann Sharp, “has really helped us make better use of part of See TRAIL, p. 14 Rappahanntx'k News photo/Lou Hatter LEADING A NATURE WALK on his trail at CCLC, Skip Giles Jr. (right) points out a beaver sitting next to a tiny Stream. The animal cutout, the dogwood tree label, and the bridge were all built as part of Skip’s Eagle Scout project. Boy Scouting faces challenges brought by changing youth, nation By joe McCullough Rappahannock News Special Writer If Norman Rockwell were still alive, he would paint Skip Giles Jr. Skip is photogenic, a handsome, easy smiler with chiseled features and piercing eyes. But most important from the perspective of a painter of Americana, the 17year-old Washington resident is All-American — resplendent in the scores of badges and awards he’s won for just about everything a Boy Scout can possibly do. He is one step away from becoming an Eagle Scout, the highest honor for a Boy Scout, and even though his eighteenth birthday is less than two months off, he has no intentions of leaving Troop 123. “I’ll probably become an assistant scoutmaster and help my dad,” Skip said. His dad, C.E. Giles, known also to everyone as “Skippy,” is the scoutmaster of Troop 123 in Washington, and has been actively involved with Boy Scouts since he was a member of Rappahannock’s Troop 64 in the early 1960’s. A lot has changed though, since Skip Sr. first put on the khaki and olive green uniform. Not all the changes have been for the better, he says. Youngsters no longer take pride in donning the uniform Skip Sr. and his pals wore to parade down the halls of school. Not even his sons, Skip Jr. and Kenny, are willing to risk the taunts of their peers by wearing their khaki shirts and olive shorts to class. But both boys insist they are proud to be Boy Scouts. “I think Scouting Was a lot more fun... we had a lot less rules and a lot more flexibility. ” — Skippy Giles Troop 123 Scoutmaster They both love camping arid the opportunity to make life long friends in the scouting program. And neither can understand why the once popular boys’ organization now finds itself clamoring for members. “Being a Boy Scout gives you an opportunity to learn so many things you wouldn’t ordinarily learn,” said the junior Giles. “All over the country, troops are having problems filling their ranks,” his father reported. “Boys who are 11 to 18 years old today are into so many different things now than when I was a boy. They are more interested in girls, sports and getting their driving license. When I was a Boy Scout we had about 20 boys in our troop. All of them lived real close to the Washington Baptist Church where we met. Now there are only ten kids in Troop 123 See SCOUTING, p. 14 preps schools for review By SHARON KILPATRICK Rappahannock News Staff Writer Both Rappahannock public schools are going through the process of preparing written self studies in anticipation of reviews by their accreditation bodies. The next step for each school will be visits by “visiting committees” to evaluate the schools for accreditation by the State Board of Education and by the Southern Association of Schools and Colleges. This will be the first time the schools have sought accreditation by the Southern Association. Previously they were only accredited by the Commonwealth of Virginia. Also at this time the school administration is preparing for an “Administrative Review” by a similar committee. “A lot of the staff is involved in hoopjumping. We have to make sure we clear all the hoops." — Dr. David Gangel School superintendent A great deal of time, effort, and paperwork has gone into this process, according to Superintendent David Gangel. However, teachers and administrators agree that the process is valuable in that it forces them to work together, to see what the various department and grade levels are doing, to reflect on how what goes on in the schools fits in with the stated educational philosophy. “I think it is worth it,” Mary Ann Biggs, assistant principal at the elementary school said, “but it's nothing you’d volunteer for. It just takes up so much time." In preparation for these evaluations Assistant Superintendant Rpbert Chappell served on the committee for an Administrative Review in another Virginia school system last year, and high school Principal John Toth was on a visiting committee last year. No one from the elementary school staff worked on a visiting committee last year, but both Principal Bemie Chesshir and Ms Biggs have been on visiting committees in the past. Mr. Chappell was given overall responsibility for preparing for the Administrative Review. Hundreds of questions were on lists that the administration has to be prepared to answrer. Mr. Chappell has prepared boxes of file folders for the central administration and for each school. Each file folder is labelled with one of the questions. Written documentation to support answers to each question is being filed in the folders. “This is a huge, huge undertaking to do it right," Dr. Gangel said. “A lot of the staff is involved in hoop jumping. We have to make sure we clear all the hoops." Many questions start out, "Does the school system have a policy on ... " In many cases there was no written policy. So for the past three School Board meetings the members have been considering and adopting new policies, including paid leave for staff members w ith military obligations, such as National Guard membership, possession of “beepers” by students, homework, the use of hazardous equipment, homework, and discipline. Now, when a member of the Administrative Review See EXAM, p. 14 Corvin guilty of sex charges By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer Richard Corvin, 32, of Fredericksburg, pleaded guilty in Rappahannock County Circuit Court on Oct. 5 to three charges of sodomy. The incidents involved a male juvenile, according to court records. Corvin entered an Alford Plea to a fourth charge, of transporting a juvenile in connection with the sex offenses. That plea means that, although the defendant does not admit guilt, he enters a guilty plea because he feels it is in his best interest. Under the plea agreement reached with Commonwealth’s Attorney Peter Luke, Corvin will undergo a psychiatric examination which will be submitted to Judge Shore Robertson along with his pre-sentencing report. Sentencing was set for Jan. 8, 1990 at 10 a.m. According to the plea agreement, the Commonwealth made no deal as to the sentence w hich will be recommended to Judge Robertson. James Preston “Dickie” Walters, 26, of Huntly, was sentenced last month to two years in prison for five housebreakings in the Huntly and Flint Hill areas last November and December. Walters faced a total of seven felony charges and three misdemeanor charges in connection with the incidents. Judge Shore Robertson sentenced Walters to six years in prison on each of the five breaking and entering charges, five yda^ on each of two grand larceny charges and 12 months in jail on each of three petty larceny charges. Walters also pleaded guilty and was sentenced to one year in jail on an unrelated escape charge. Judge Robertson ordered that all of the sentences, except the escape, be served concurrently, or all at the same time. He suspended all of the jail time except for one year, then added the one year for the escape charge to that.

Inside the front door is a house-wide tiled entry hall. The right-hand wing consists of living room with a marble-faced fireplace, dining room, and large, bright eat-in kitchen/family room with a large skylight. Beyond this is a recently-added three-story addition With a self-contained apartment and large living room on the ground floor and a library/den above. The addition looks out over a pond and the woods beyond. Running back from the left end of the entry hall is a hall off which are three bedrooms and three baths. The hall and the rooms of the right wing look into the central garden. Bill Furtick had been Dean of the University of Hawaii’s College of Tropical Agriculture and is now Director of the Food and Agriculture Division of USAID. As such he, Anne and their Children have travelled extensively, spending tours of duty in Taiwan, Jordan, Chile and Italy with side trips to neighboring countries. The decorations throughout this charming house bear this out. ' On either side of the front door are two large display cases, one containing figurines from many nations CRESTWOOD, THE HOME OF William and Anne Furtick, the style of a classic Roman villa. Photos courtesy of Sean Kilpatrick is a contemporary home built in and cultures, the other clay pots and potsherds unearthed by Anne in Jordan and Syria.

BLEWITT Arundel Newspapers State Writer Blaming news media and political posturing, Avtex Fibers of Front Royal, Inc. announced last Thursday its plans to lay off almost half of its employees on Friday, Oct. 13. The company’s decision to shut down its three remaining rayon staple lines will result in the loss of jobs for 318 of 660 hourly workers and 60 of 114 salaried personnel at the Front Royal plant. Avtex will continue to produce the carbonized rayon used by NASA and the Department of Defense for U.S. space and military programs. The half-century old plant has been plagued by state and federal pollution violations this year. Most recently, the company was allegedly responsible for discharging PCB’s into the Shenandoah River. Virginia Attorney General Mary Sue Terry asked the court in August to temporarily shut down the plant until repairs were secured to ensure that no further PCBs leaked into the river. Although the court denied the Commonwealth’s request for an injunction, ordering the company instead to salhple discharges daily to prevent further discharges of the carcinogenic chemical, an Avtex spokesman said the company suffered from negative publicity. “The decision to shut down rayon staple production is due to the unforseeable loss of Avtex’s rayon staple customer base, resulting from widespread, negative publicity associated with the Commonwealth of Virginia’s actions against the plant,” read a statement issued by John N. Gregg, chairman of the board and chief executive of Avtex. Gregg also described Terry’s efforts to close down the entire plant as “unwarranted.” Burt Rohrer, spokesman for the attorney general’s office responded that, “The goal of the Common wealth from the beginning has been to alleviate serious pollution and worker safety problems in and around the Avtex plant. There is overwhelming evidence that the company has been unable or unwilling to meet its legal responsibilities in this area.” Struggling under increased fines and clean-up cost, the company’s decision to shrink production is the second in five month. Avtex announced in June its plans to reduce production. The company’s “restructuring" plan closed five of the eight rayon staple lines and resulted in the loss of jobs for nearly 500 employees. The initial reduction was caused by “the imposition of environmental requirements by authorities of the Commonwealth of Virginia far in excess of those anticipated by the company, in combination with unanticipated business and community pressures,” said Avtex spokesman Nick Nickols in June. U.S. Sen. John Warner (R-Va), who was influencial in a $40 million bail out project last November when the company shut down for financial reasons, expressed his regret for the Avtex employees who lost their jobs. In addition, Warner called for a Senate subcommittee to review federal environmental laws to determine if they are adequate. Warner said he also plans to meet with members of the Environmental Protection Agency, NASA, and' the Department of Defense to discuss “environmental compliance by defense and space contractors." A Tennessee company is in the process of receiving certification by the federal government for the production of the carbonized rayon yarn used in rocket nozzles, but final approval by the agencies involved is not expected until 1991. Until then. Avtex remains the government's sole supplier of the yarn.

Published by Arundel Newspapers Member, Audit Bureau of Circulation. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12. 1989 Shifting blame This week, the beleagered Avtex Fibers plant in Front Royal announced that it is laying off half of its workers and shutting down its remaining rayon staple production lines. In making the announcement, Avtex Chairman John Gregg said, in a prepared statement, that the news media and unnecessary court actions by the Commonwealth of Virginia are to blame for the company’s decision. In pointing fingers at the state and the news media, Mr. Gregg implicitly algo blames them for the workers who, as of Friday, are out of work. It is unfortunate that, even at this late date, Mr. Gregg still refuses to acknowledge the true culprit in the Avtex mess — namely, his own corporation’s mismanagement of the company and its facility. True, a lack of communication between state and federal regulatory agencies probably contributed to the plant not being closed before now, but they are not the primary cause. ” For years Avtex Fibers, through its managers, has used every legal loophole imaginable to skirt closure of the plant because of violations of environmental, worker health and - safety regulations. The plant has been repeatedly cited for violations, but through half-hearted efforts and empty promises has managed to keep operations going. Meanwhile, the environmental problems have mounted. ^ The time has come to Avtex to face up to its years of ;« neglect of state and federal regulations. :: And the blame for the company’s plight, Mr. Gregg, lies - not with the news media or the regulators charged with : overseeing the plant. It lies with you, and with the arrogant I attitude which has left Avtex an environmental nightmare. - The workers who have lost their jobs should look toward : Mr. Gregg and the company’s other top management for the blame. But we’re willing to bet that the workers won’t meet : them in any unemployment lines. .VTvmrnn it i-r The wrong choice J. Marshall Coleman, the Republican gubernatorial nominee, said Tuesday that he intends to pick up his attacks against Lt. Gov. Douglas Wilder’s record during the last month of the campaign. ■ According to Wednesday’s Richmond Times-Dispatch, Mr. Coleman feels that the questions about his personal and professional dealings relate to Mr. Wilder’s fitness to hold office. Unfortunately, we think that Mr. Coleman has made the r wrong choice. Apparently smarting from Monday’s debate with his Democratic opponent, Mr. Coleman seems to be choosing the low road — on which he’s proven himself a master in past campaigns. But another month of personal attacks is not what the voters of Virginia need. What we need are some reasons to elect Mr. Coleman — rather than reasons not to elect Mr. Wilder. I.

Letters to the editor To peep... or not to p<gep To the editor: You did it again! You forgot that you have two (at least) groups of readers. People in one group know about farming, fishing, hunting, bushhogging and groundhogs. (Do you remember them?) They know that Fodderstack Road is the scenic route between Washington and Flint Hill even though that fact is nowhere recorded on road sign nor map. People in this group typically were born here and gained their knowledge at birth. They also know where to find FT Valley and what a fluffer is. People in the other group are folk like me. We have lived here, say, less than 30 or 40 years. Some of us have learned some things, of course. I, for example, recently learned from a neighbor what “spotlighting” is. (I read it in Mr. James J. Kilpatrick’s journal in the Washington Post.) But we will never know everything, either individually or collectively. “What’s the issue?” you say. Well, the issue is that in a recent issue you reported on two things that I don’t quite understand. I say that it’s your job to instruct me on these matters, not the Washington Post’s. For example, you reported that a man was fined for “shoot with unplugged gun.” Now “unplugged” is the opposite of “plugged” and one would think that a plugged gun PH 'IF'"' : WHEN THEY ASK, WHO IS J.MARSHALL COLEMAN/TELL THEM HE IS A MAN THAT LOVES HIS COUNTRY,THAT HE IS THE MAN WHO USES JOHN M. COLEMAN IN HIS BUSINESS DEALS, THAT HE IS... ' / wouldn’t be worth more than a plugged nickel. Was the man fined for having too good a gun? Then, too, “to plug” also means to shoot. Was the man fined for carrying a gun that had never been fired? “Plug also means to advertise; could Virginia law really proscribe shooting with an unadvertised gun? There are many definitions of the word “plug” and I won’t trouble you with all the possibilities I considered. A plugged gun, I have sinced learned (not from you), is a gun that has a device in its magazine that limits the number of rounds that can be loaded at one time. But why is there a law against unplugged guns? Why is “Bang! Bang! Bang! Pause.” better than “Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!?” You also reported that a man was fined for “peep through property.” What’s that? We all know about peeping toms but it is what they peep at that makes their crimes despicable not what the toms peep through, whether curtains, Venetian blinds, or even transoms. This, clearly, can’t be a peeping tom case. Toms peep, but so, too, do young birds. And, in the past when I was in a light-hearted mood, upon hearing a bird peep I would often peep right back. It might even be said that I have peeped all through my property. Have I thus offended law and the decorum of Rappahannock County? Until I know more, I shall peep no more, at least until spring. In the meantime, perhaps you should hire a copy editor from Booklyn. W. MICHAEL MAHONEY Washington No thought To the editor: The main piece of legislation introduced in the General Assembly by Delegate Page Higginbotham, (R, 30th) was a law against urinating in public. As he introduced it, it would have required law enforcement officials to arrest and prosecute many farmers, hunters, fishermen and others who spend all day in the open. (And can you see a state policeman arresting a threeyear old child beside his parents’ car on the shoulder of a highway?) It is not good to have a law on the books if it is not to be enforced. Fortunately, the House of Delegates rewrote Page’s law and saved us from the worst of it. As passed, the law permits any town in Virginia to forbid urination in public if its citizens agree in a referendum. This is another case of Delegate Higginbotham taking action in the House of Delegates without thinking through its effects. HARRY M. GIBBS Madison Thanks from Sperryville To the editor: On behalf of the Sperryville Volunteer Fire Department, I wish to thank everyone who sold tickets for our gun raffle and to all who purchased them. We are also very thankful for the support you gave us at the Apple Harvest Festival. Thanks to those of you who donated baked goods and to the Ladies’ Auxiliary for your assistance. And to John and Judy Tweel of the “Church Mouse,” we are deeply grateful for allowing us the space to set up. Our department cannot survive without the support of the community. GREG WAYLAND, CHIEF Sperryville Vol. Fire Dept. Sen. Dalton is best choice To the editor: In his letter to the editor in late September, Augustus Johnson says that State Senator Eddy Dalton is unqualified for the office of Lieutenant Governor. Further, he feels that Senator Dalton’s opponent is highly qualified. Eddy Dalton’s opponent is a Volvo dealer from Fairfax who has never had public office. . Mr. Johnson complains that none of Senator Dalton’s proposed legislation passed into law. He prefers a candidate who has never had the opportunity to propose any legislation at all. But let’s take a look at the Senator’s proposals, the ones voted down by a legislature dominated by Democrats. Here are a few of Eddy Dalton’s proposals: • to remove the sales tax on prescription drugs. • to create a five year mandatory sentence for anyone selling drugs to children. • to require school officials to notify parents of students suspected of taking drugs or alcohol. • to assure that parents have an opportunity to influence school board decisions concerning course content, disciplinary policies and special programs. • to prohibit the sale of “R” and “X”-rated videos to minors • to require state judgeships be nominated by a bipartisan commission rather than by the current process of nomination by secret caucus of the majority party. Those proposals sound pretty good to me. I wish they had passed. And I hope that the voters of Virginia will agree that Eddy Dalton is not only qualified but the best candidate for Lieutenant Governor. Also, Eddy Dalton is the only candidate to say that she is going to cut state expenditures by cutting the outrageous expenses of the Lieutenant Governor’s office. And she came in person to Rappahannock to campaign and to listen to the people’s concerns. The other candidate sent his wife. SHEILAH SWEET Washington A gift to long treasure To the editor: To paraphrase Geoffry Plantagenet, second son of King Henry II: “It galls me deeply!” Geoffry was referring to his anger at the plotting of Henry to choose a successor to the throne. What galls me is that more residents of Rappahannock were not present last weekend to savor the Rappahannock Players superb production of “The Lion in Winter.” The sheer audacity of it! Imagine this tiny company bringing such a big and boisterous show to life. Imagine creating an entire medieval castle with 12 different interiors on a stage just 28 feet wide. Imagine moments of dramatic intensity worthy of Broadway, right here at home. Steve Hostetter’s Henry was galvanizing; his “my sons, I’ve lost my sons” monologue was especially fine. Dinah Pehrson-Day brought a majestic tone of scathing irony to Queen Eleanor of Acqintaine, re prising splendidly Katherine Hepburn’s professional evocation of the role. Proud and stubborn Richard (Howard Coon), wiley Geoffry (Sam Clifton), and wonderfully pouting John (Jody Carbone) the Royal couple’s three backstabbing sons, delivered scene after delicious scene of intrigue and conflict. Hunt Harris, the scornfully vibrant Phillip of France, and the tender yet sultry Cynthia Novis (Princess Alais) brought additional crackling energy to a magnificient drama of high philosophy and jealous rivalry. Tribute to an exciting evening would be incomplete without doffing a crown to the power behind the throne. Michelene Hostetter laid her skillful directorial plans, marshalled See LETTERS, p.5

%» Players' success was a community effort By DIANA BIRD Rappahannock News Contributing Writer The production by the Rappahannock Players over two weekends of James Goldman’s “The Lion in Winter” was an undertaking that involved dozens in the community. Its success is a corporate one, including the enthusiastic audiences. Like the other memorable dramatic i productions to the Players’ credit, | “The Lion” will evoke certain moj ments in the memory of each viewer for years to come. [ The play required the sustained f and accomplished acting of two print cipal characters, in this case Dinah s Pehrson-Day playing Eleanor of > Aquitaine and Stephen Hostetter • playing her husband, Henry II, King £ of England. Both displayed the virtuosity of professionals. At the first performance, a high point for me was the moment when King Henry threatened to kill his son, Prince Richard, with his broadsword and ; found he couldn’t. Historically, ' Henry is credited with the murder of i the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas a Becket, his intimate | friend, whom he admonished knights I of his household to assassinate in ; 1170. , One wonders if Henry’s threatened murder of Richard is supposed to remind us of this other fearful Commentary ; crime 13 years earlier for which Henry paid dearly the .remainder of his life. Henry’s relationship with Thomas a Becket is the subject of two other famous plays, T.S. Eliot’s “Murder in the Cathedral” and Jean Anouilh’s Becket. Seeing the play a second time on Oct. 6, I was transfixed by the energy and drama of the occasion when Alais Capet, princess and mistress of Henry, is about to be dragged away to a forced marriage between herself and Prince Richard. Here the defenselessness of young women of all stations reminded me of Juliet, of Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet,” who risked suicide rather than marriage to her parents’ choice for her. A major purpose of “The Lion in Winter” seems to be to illuminate the chess game quality of life at a medieval court, where, in spite of custom and Church law, a king had absolute authority. A consequence of this arbitrariness w as a dog-eatdog atmosphere that spoiled the possibility of personal integrity. The vividness with which this idea was brought to life was the work of many people. A performance encourages one to focus on the actors, but reflection suggests a deeper look. The director Michelene Hostetter, had the responsibility to interpret the script, see that each character related plausibly to the others and pull the whole play together. The stage manager, Sarah Shorter, was responsible for the complicated and beautiful arrangement of the scenes with their properties and the especially constructed, ingenious settings. The costume designer, Cornelia O’Conner, had to plan the elegant, colorful and authentic clothes for 12th century courtiers, and see that able friends were found to make them. Vincent Day’s all-important lighting design worked to make us forget how much hinged on artistic and adequate illumination. No one who saw the play will forget the picturesque sets designed by Waldron O’Connor and constructed by Steve Hostetter and others. They moved us from room to room, even to the dungeon of a great Norman castle. ' All of these individuals, together with Nol Putnam, forger of Henry’s no-nonsense great broad sword, and the fine supporting actors, deserve most of the credit for the play’s success. But many others smoothed their ways with enabling work. It was not unlike the organization of an expedition to climb Mt. Everest: while only a few reach the summit, they are utterly dependent on dozens backing them up below. The team work, however, is fun and the comaraderie developed every participant cherishes. I hope we can all appreciate too the money the Players advanced to meet production costs and the expenses in terms of hours of volunteered time. Had we to pay in ticket charges what the donated work represented, none of us could have afforded to attend and there would have been no live theater in Rappahannock. No pains in terms of attention and thoroughness were spared to bring us “The Lion in Winter,” from the publicity that preceeded the opening to the three trombones that set the stage with their baroque, interwoven melodies to which we listened in the hush before the action began. When can we hope for such another occasion? How can we thank our friends and neighbors who made it possible?

THE “OPEN HOUSE” One of the recent trends in real estate sales is the “Open House” method of selling a home. An “Open House" does just what the name suggest; it opens the house to the general public and, hopefully, generates an interested buyer. An "Open House” gives a real estate agency the opportunity to spotlight a particular property and it gives both the agency and the seller a chance to hear viewers’ opinions together and to make adjustments in the market strategy if necessary. “Open House” are usually held on either or both Saturday and Sunday afternoons. When a property is first listed, it is also common for an agency to held a “Brokers Open House” to give all the area Multiple Listing agents an opportunity to view the house at the same time. This minimizes distrubances to the seller and the seller’s family. An “Open House” is a popular and effective means for marketing most residential properties. Our agency would certainly discuss the merits of this type of marketing when selling your home. If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real estate please stop)in at EILEEN M.

Bible reflects choice 1 o the editor: It’s funny how people who claim that the Bible is God’s infallible Word seem not to know its contents. For instance, a recent writer to a Culpeper newspaper presented it as a sort of manual for moral sex relationships, forgetting, I guess, about King Solomon’s 1,000 wives and concubines. His only sin was taking up the women’s religious beliefs.. Overlooked as .well..were Lot’s daughters’ relations with him (after they had tricked him into drinking himself into a stupor) in order to “save his seed.” Anti-choice people also use the Bible to back up their position, but it’s highly unlikely that the God portrayed in the Bible is actually against abortions. Consider the fact the He destroyed all of developing mankind, including many fetuses or “babies” in the womb, one has to imagine, and saved only Noah and his family, because He didn’t like the way people were coming along.

And it is unlikely that the city of Gomorroh was inhabited only by homosexual rapists; there were women, indeed pregnant women, destroyed in its inferno. One might draw the conclusion that it is only the unborn of the unrighteous (or pagans) which the Bible’s Gbd seams'hot to consider. But even at that^ according to the antichoice movement, women wanting abortions and the pro-choice people who support their right to do so are immoral. Since the day of Penticost following Jesus’ crucifixion, when the Spirit was poured out upon all flesh, all mankind have become children of the divine Trinity Family, yet there remains the dicotomy of those who have become bom-again-of-theSpirit (by their freewill choice) and those who have not. When everyone wakes up to their status as children of God and siblings in a Divine and human family (Ephians 3:15) far fewer abortions will be needed. Children need loving families which reflect the Divine. People must be allowed to choose! And we must demonstrate again if necessary. PETER B.

Not many things stay the same it seems these days. Things change, some for the better and some for the worse. But that verse of scripture says that Jesus is the same, He has never changed. Why has He never changed? Well, you can’t improve on perfection. There have been many things said about Jesus, some true, some false. But for those who know Him personally, they know Him, as their Saviour, Lord, Master, healer, friend, their everything, because He was the one who gave His Life to give them new life. In this ever changing world in which we live, those who know Jesus Christ personally, know that He never changes, He is the unchanging Christ. In this world of uncertainty, the one who knows Jesus personally, is certain that Jesus is greater than anything in the world, and He will never leave us or forsake us. (Matthew 28:20) What great peace we have in our hearts because we know Jesus Christ personally. You may be a good person morally, or you may be a church member, or even been baptized, but after reading this article you may realize you don’t know Jesus Christ in a personal way. If you desire to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ then pray this prayer from your heart. Dear God, I come to you in the name of Jesus. I want to know your Son J6sus as my Savior and Lord. Therefore I repent of my sin, and turn to you. Dear Jesus, I believe in my heart that you are the Son of God, and that you died for my sins, I ask you to come into my heart right now, and make me a new person, and make your home in me. I confess with my mouth that you are my Lord and Savior, and I will follow you and serve you with all my heart! Thank you Lord Jesus, for my new life! If you prayed this prayer, I want you to call me at 987-8014,1 have some literature to give you to help you in your new life.

Pat Georger, 65, dies after mishap By ANN POWER Arumfel Newspapers Special Writer Patrick Healy Georger, 65, of Castleton, died Oct. 9 as a result of injuries he received in an accident Oct. 7. Mr. Georger was struck by a car as he walked toward the railroad station in Manassas. A Rosary will be recited at 7 p.m. Friday at Moser Funeral Home in Warrenton. Mass will be sung at 10 a.m. Saturday in St. Johns Catholic Church. Burial will follow in Warrenton Cemetary. Georger was a familiar figure in Warrenton. A loyal fan of all Fauquier High School athletic contests and a faithful patron of church and civic luncheons, suppers, fairs and carnivals, he played the piano and guitar and was a regular and enthusiastic performer in every production of the hospital Follies. He had an incredible memory for names and faces and gave a hearty greeting to everyone he had ever met. He remembered past events and dates, as well as family connections of people he knew even slightly. Born in Buffalo, N.Y., in February 1923, Georger moved to Warrenton with his parents, the late Dr. and Mrs. Francis A. Georger, and his brother, F.A. Georger Jr. The family made their home at Arbor Vitae, just north of Warren ton on U.S. 29. Dr. Georger was a pediatrician. Pat attended the Calvert School in Warrenton and Staunton Military Academy. He would recall his school experiences for all listeners or serenade anyone who offered him a ride as he traveled about the county. His brother, a metallurgist, died at the age of 26 in a commercial airline crash near Leesburg in 1947. After the death of his father in 1948 and his mother in 1951, Pat made his home for many years with Victoria Gray and her sister. For the past several years he had been living in Rappahannock County, but he made the trip into Warrenton on almost a daily basis. An inveterate walker, he was pleased to be given a ride as he made his way from one destination to another. He had recently begun carrying his guitar with him again after a hiatus of several years. Pat Georger’s presence and reception in Warrenton was one of the attributes of Warrenton as a small town, where it is accepted that, in the words of Henry David Thoreau, “If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears however tneasured or far away.” CULPEPER FUNERAL HOME I* Licensed Director on premises 24 hours • Advanced Funeral planning available • Cemetery memorials •Family owned & operated 800 James Madison Highway | Culpeper, Virginia I 825-3530 Sam Found, Licensed Director GOING OUT OF PRINT SALE r>« v«j ruus JOHN SWGtmON + MOS8Y t KtviN h am I Rphpl • The Life and Times of * John Singleton Mosby by Kevin H.

Cooking with Pan fish delicious many ways By SANDRA RICHARDSON Rappahannock News Contributing Writer “Dem bones, dem bones, dem fish bones...” Eating a pan-dressed fish can be justias enjoyable as eating a fillet — if you know where to look for “dem bones.” Spot, croaker, butterfish, whiting, small bluefish, sea trout and black sea bass are called pan fish because they fit whole in a frying pan. Many round fish (as opposed to flat fish such as flounder) are too small to be filleted efficiently. The number and seemingly random location of the bones often discourage a potential eater because mk^m mw mi they just seem to be more trouble than they are worth. A typical round fish is shaped like an oval tube, with the backbone through the center between two thick stripes of flesh. A line of bones extends upward from the spine toward the dorsal fin. Along the bottom of the spine, a double line of bones fans out vertically to enclose the entrails. Remember, where there are fins there are bones in the flesh to support the fins. Pan fish can be butterfly filleted. This involves cutting down the backbone but not through the bottom flap and removing the backbone and entrails from the tip. The fish is then opened up butterfly fashion. Pan fish have long been the stars of the classic Southern gathering, the fish fry. Consequently, the favored method of preparing these fish is pan-fried, sauteed or batter-fried, and each cook knows the right way to fry. Coatings include commeal, cracker crumbs, dried or fresh baked crumbs, whole grain flours, crushed breakfast cereal and wheat germ. But the pan fish can also be grilled, broiled and baked. Broiled with special seasonings and butter, spot is outstanding. Butterfish are succulent when sauteed. For those individuals who cannot eat wheat breadings and would like a change from commeal, try mixing tapioca flour and panko, a Japanese breading. Both are available in Oriental stores. The two recipes for baked fish will add variety to fish cookery. The baked fish with lemon and vegetables is a delightful meal in itself. Small fish in beer sauce is a great microwave recipe; the fish is really poached in the sauce. For an appealing do-ahead lazy fall supper, pickled fish fills the bill.

Wakefield tops Panthers, 3-2 By LOU HATTER Rappahannock News Staff Writer The Wakefield-Rappahannock soccer rivalry goes back year, and each game provides another chapter in an exciting volume of soccer contests. Last Saturday’s match in Huntly was no exception, with the Ow Is prevailing over the visiting Panthers in overtime, 3-2. The hard-fought, physical game was an even match through the first half, with neither team able to take an advantage, or a successful shot on goal. Goalie Lewis Martin from Wakefield was kept busy with pressure from the Rappahannock offense, but denied the attacking Panthers a score. In the second half the Owls pressed their offense, taking a wellcoordinated attack downfield. Wakefield scored first, but the score was evened almost immediately by the Panthers. As Rappahannock’s difficulties with offsides calls continued (a total of 10 for the game), Wakefield used the turnovers to their advantage and scored again, taking the lead 2-1. But again the Panthers answered almost immediately, evening the match at 2-2. The rest of the second half was a see-saw battle, with several fine shots by both teams but saves by goalie Martin and Rappahannock’s Philip Daczewitz preventing further scoring. In the overtime period the physical play continued, but the Owls scored with about two minutes left on a disputed offsides play. Observers said that the line judge had raised his flag to indicate an offsides as Wakefield pressed goalie Daczewitz and his fullbacks, but lowered it behind his back when the ball shot into the goal, despite Daczewitz’s diving attempted save. The goal stood, however, and the Owls held Rappahannock scoreless for the remainder of the overtime period to take the contest, 3-2. Panther Coach Richard Dietz said he felt that his team outplayed the Owls, and pointed to Martin’s 21 saves on 44 shots on goal as evidence of Rappahannock’s offensive press. He called the offsides calls probably the deciding factor in the match, repeatedly taking the momentum away from the Panther offense. The SIIERIDAN-MACMAIION, LTD.

September 27, 1989 SHERIDAN-MACMAHON, LTD., REALTORS 15 East Washington Street Middleburg, Virginia Telephone: 703-687-5588 Local affiliate - Sotheby's International Realty Brokers of Record - Paul and Ann MacMahon Rappahannock News photo/Lou Hatter TAKING A TUMBLE, Rappahannock’s Jeremy Tole (15) steps quickly to avoid Wakefield goalie Lewis Martin, as Owl fullback Jason Buratti (left) backs up the save. • Owls were called for offsides only twice. Foul totals, however, were more evenly distributed, with the Panthers called 14 times and the Owls 12. Wakefield took only 12 shots on goal, and Panther goalie Daczewitz tallied eight saves. Wakefield Coach Todd Landis said he was satisfied writh the Owls’ effort, and said it indicates his players are pulling together as a team. “We had a rough start this year, and lost a couple of games we should have won. We had 11 guys out there, instead of one team.” Saturday, in contrast, Coach Landis said, “it was an excellent game. I was really proud of my team for finally playing together. ” Though Coach Dietz called the loss unfortunate, he had nothing but praise for the cross-county rivals. “I can’t take anything away from them — they played hard. It was an evenly played game — both teams gave everything they had for 90 minutes. “The people who came to watch and cheer saw that there is good soccer being played in Rappahannock County. It’s a shame there had to be a winner and a loser.” Coach Landis agreed with Coach Dietz’s assessment. “It was a good close game, and I was impressed with the decorum that both teams displayed.” The two teams reprise their Homecoming match on Oct. 28. Milton Wright (r) and James Johnson count on the quality of Deutz-Allis tractors - every working day I've got the EDGE! When I bid on contracts, I can beat the other guys," says Milton Wright, of Mountaineer Trucking. Milton wrignt does a great deal of highway mowing in Fairfax, Arlington and Prince William counties. He has seven Deutz-Allis tractors ranging from 18 to 85 horsepower models and has his machines running between 800 and 900 hours per year. When asked why he likes the Deutz-Allis line, he responded: "Repairs have been almost none. I’ve only replaced a couple fuel lines. Other than that, there have been no other tractor repairs." Why so few repairs? "I've found that 40 percent of the problems with watercooled tractors come from the heating system, radiator or fan. Deutz-Allis tractors are aircooled to eliminate those problems. "All you have to do is take the air hose and blow it out to maintain your cooling unit. "My tractors operate dose to 8000 hours per year and I haven't had any problems with overheating. The temperature hand stays on cool all the time when you're operating a Dcutz-AUis tractor." How are Dcutz-Allis tractors on fuel? "My records on the first two tractors show, that under 2200 rpms, with approximately 800 hours on each,I averaged 1.1 gallons per hour mowing with a six-foot hydraulic mower." Although Milton Wrightcovers mostly Northern Virginia, he takes the time to commute to Culpeper for the quality of service and Deutz-Allis tractors he finds at Green Valley Equipment. "I recommend Deutz-Allis tractors and Green Valley Equipment to everybody who farms or mows for a living." The first 10 calls on any Deutz-Allis tractor will be offered a special savings of up to $5250! Including our orchard and vineyard model. _Call Today!

Your smile has gone forever, your hands we cannot touch, Thank God for tender memories, of the one we loved so much, it broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone, for part of us went with you, the day God called you home, they say time heals all sorrow, and helps us to forget, but time so far has only proved, how much we miss you yet. God aives us the strength to race it, and courage to bear the blow, but what it meant to have to lose you, no one will ever know. Loved and missed by your children, Millie, Judy and Buddy. I would like to express my appreciation to all my friends and relatives for their flowers, visits, thoughts, calls, prayers and other acts of kindness shown to me while I was a patient in Culpeper Memorial Hospital and since my return home.

Scouting Continued from page 1 and they come from all over Rappahannock County,” Skip Sr. said. “I think scouting was more fun when I was involved. We had a lot less rules and a lot more flexibility. But at the same time,” the scoutmaster acknowledged, “there are a lot more merit badges being offered these days.” Sean Kilpatrick, another scout of yesteryear, echoed Mr. Giles’ sentiments. “It used to be, when scouts were out camping in the summer and they happened on a swimming hole, the whole troop would strip down and jump in. Nowadays if a troop did that, the sheriff and all his deputies would have the place surrounded before anyone could get their hair wet. And the leader would be hauled away in handcuffs and accused of being a pervert!” According to Skip Sr., many of the new rules have come about because of society’s growing fear of child molestation. “These days, it could happen anywhere, even in a quiet little community like Rappahannock,” he said. One of the new rules requires that at least two adults be present at any sort of scouting function, whether the function involves one scout or the whole troop. Scoutmaster Giles doesn’t object to the rule: he says he recognizes that it’s designed to protect the kids, which should be a leader’s top priority. But it does make matters difficult for an already undermanned Rappahannock staff. “Recently we went camping and some of the kids wanted to go on outpost, but some didn’t. This meant two leaders for each group. It’s hard to have four adiilts available for each time we want to do something,” the scoutmaster explained. Another obstacle Scouts have is finding merit badge instructors. “In the old days anyone who met the qualifications just had to fill out a form and he was an instructor. Now an applicant must complete a multipaged application giving his life history,” said Mr. Kilpatrick. “After the applcation is completed it must be approved by a local committee and the county’s head of scouting (Rev. Jennings Hobson III). Then it goes to Winchester to be approved, and finally to the national office,” added Skip Sr. According to Giles, another reason scouts are short-handed is that “people of today don’t want to commit to anything anymore. Don’t get me wrong — there are a few willing to lend a hand. But most of the time tl» scoutmaster does all the work. Peisonally, I don’t like to teach nipnt badges. There are more qualpeople out there to do it and it’s a conflict of interest. Fortunately, most of the kids get their badges at camp.” Camps and jamborees are two things about scouting that haven’t changed - much. “Today they are A glorious Panoramic view from this well constructed brick -Cape Cod on 1.9 acres near Flint Hill.

Skip Jr., who has worked as a camp counselor over the past two years, added that “working at a scout camp is a rewarding and invaluable experience. It’s also a lot of fun.” This summer at Camp Rock Enon, he had ample opportunity for that fun, teaching wilderness survival and six different skill awards classes. On Sept. 16, Rappahannock will be the host of the Shenrappawa District’s fall eamporee. It will be held in Old Hollow behind Eileen Day’s property. Scouts from Shenandoah, Rappahannock, Page, and Warren counties will compete in a variety of cooking contests from best stew to best dessert. There will also be a fire-building contest, and afterwards the campers will feast from a huge buffet comprised of all the entries. “Because of the declining interest in scouting nationwide the ‘higher ups’ are considering big changes in the future. One of these may be including girls in more projects. Women can already be scoutmasters and soon it may all be incorporated,” said Skip Sr. The elder Giles welcomes the girls. In fact, he welcomes anything that might get scouting back on its feet again. “I don’t know what the answrer is. We used to be a prouder nation. People used to take pride in things like the flag, their country, and scouts. It used to be that troops went out on private outings and no one cared if they camped on their land because scouts are trustworthy and clean. Now everyone’s uptight, they’re afraid of lawsuits and less inclined to trust anyone,” said Giles. Skip Sr. says he can almost understand why youngsters of today are hesitant to be a Boy Scout. “I can remember when I was a boy riding my bike around Washington. A lot of my friends were scouts and I used to tease them and laugh at their uniforms. I called them sissies until one day I realized they were having more fun than I was. All I was doing was riding my bike all day. I think if today’s boys gave it a chance and stuck with it, they wrould really like it.” For those who want to take that pledge and try the fun of scouting, Troop 123 meets every Monday at 7 p.m. at Trinity Episcopal Church in Washington. “Anyone’s welcome to come by,” the Giles - Skip Jr. and Sr. — concluded.

Washington, Va. 703-675-3777 Res: 703-937-4388 r\i r Trail Continued from page 1 our property -- the woods, which was an unused portion of the property.” Teachers often thought about taking their classes outside for a walk in the woods behind the school, but the thought of bushwhacking through tangled vines and undergrowth with a dozen young children almost immediately deterred them, she said. But Skip, with the help of friends Brian Clark, Chris Stringfellow and Joshua Swatman, his brother Kenny and his father Skippy (who is also Troop 123’s Scoutmaster), did the bushwhacking for the teachers, children and staff at CCLC. After school, on weekends and over summer vacation, the crew cleared about 400 yards of brush on a trail which begins just behind the school and winds through the woods, along an abandoned dirt road and ends at the school’s new pavilion. After clearing the trail of brush and tree roots. Skip and friends hauled at least 100 wheelbarrow loads of wood chips and sawdust from Peter Kramer’s cabinet shop in Washington, spreading them along the length of the trail. “My dad drove the pickup,” he added. To avoid steep inclines and hills. Skip also built several bridges over gulleys on the trail. And about half-way down the trail, there’s a small natural ampitheatre for outdoor classes. It’s complete with benches for the children and a lectern for their teacher. All are built of wood, sunk into the ground and designed to last for many years. Along the trail, small wooden signs identify native trees for the children. In other places there are wooden cutouts of animals, painted and labeled with the animal's name. A small beaver sits on his haunches near a tiny stream, and a squirrel stands next to a tree, ready to scamper at the slightest sound. Skip estimated that the project took more than 100 hours to complete, and he said it wouldn’t have been possible without the help of several members of the community. Dean Morehouse contributed the lumber he used to build the bridges along the trail and the outdoor classroom. Peter Kramer contributed more wood for the animal cutouts Country Charmer! on 5.4 private acres in Ben Venue area. Call today for your private showing and see what you have been missing!

Other questions are not so easily answered.

The Virginia Department of Transportation contributed old but salvagable posts for supports for the classroom’s benches. From Skip Sr. came the paint for the animal cutouts and the tree labels. Mrs. Sharp said the project “has been a great motivator for the teachers to take the kids out into the woods. It has greatly expanded the ability of the program to offer enrichment and exposure to nature.” For Skip, seeing the children enjoying a walk in the woods was all the payment he needed. After leading a class of four-year-olds along the trail, Skip said, “When I saw them on the trail today, it made me glad that I did it. They really seemed to enjoy it. It seemed that the kids like it -- that touched me.” The class’s teacher, Tammy Ehrhart, agreed with Skip’s assessment. “My kids love it! I take them up there at least twice a week.” The project has left a legacy for Troop 123 as well, according to Skip. It will need periodic maintenance: clearing new vines and sapling sprouts, and renewing the wood chip base of the path. That could be part of yet another Eagle project for another member of Troop 123, he suggested. Sperryville area — For Sale by Sealed Bids, 20.34 ac., 1 mile north on U.S. 211.

With the sevenperiod day, we no longer have Piedmont students leaving class early or coming back to class late.” At the elementary school Mr. Chesshir and Ms Biggs had decided they would have to keep a log of all their activities for a month in order to provide documentation for the question, “Is at least 40 percent of the time of the principal and assistant principal devoted to supervision of instruction and development of curriculum?” They, were brainstorming how to provide documentation to answer the question, “Does the staff demonstrate qualities of patriotism, honesty, and fair play and expect the same of all students?” “Well, we recite the Pledge of Allegiance every day,” Ms Biggs suggested. “And the seventh-grade teachers supply and train students to raise and lower the flag each day,” Mr. Chesshir added. “When a student is sent in for discipline, we tell him, The worst thing you can do is lie,’” he explained. This will be the last year for Administrative Reviews, Dr. Gangel said. In the future the state will be adopting a system called Educational Performance Recognition. “They will evaluate schools on outcome, rather than documentation,” he said. Such factors as performance on standardized tests and percentage who graduate will probably be past of the process, he said, but the State Board of Education is still working the system out. He had learned that Rappahannock schools would be compared with 14 other school systems in the state. Two, Madison and Clark counties, are nearby.

The Administrative Review team will be in the county in late November, at the same time the visiting committee is in the high school Most of the work on the high school’s self study has been done and is being typed. English teacher Roger Flinchum was put in charge of the self study last year and committees started work. Most teachers served on three committees. “It helped us to understand other departments,” English teacher Beth Briggs said. “I was on the Special Education committee. I learned a lot about Special Ed. You get an in depth look at another department.” Mr. Flinchum explained that each committee started with a checklist of questions to answer. Then it had to prepare a narrative and note strengths and weaknesses in each area. The five members of the visiting committee will each get a copy when they arrive. They will have three days to “check each report for accuracy,” Mr. Flinchum said. “Sometimes they find strengths we don’t, and sometimes they find weaknesses we didn’t. When they leave, they have to have a printed report ready. ” Then the School Board will get both reports, he explained. After five years, the School Board is expected to submit a followup report on what has been done about the changes recommended, Mr. Flinchum said.
